Alexandria, VA (May 13, 1998) -- Before we get to the number six member of the banking group, someone wrote me the other day and said "get on with the selections!" I'll repeat that we're not in a rush to make selections because this is a DRIP portfolio and because most of the people asked that we take it slow. The person also said "thanks for the balance sheet, but I can read that myself." What I'm providing below and what we'll deal with more next week as we apply more of theory to the practical numbers that I've provided is more than just a balance sheet. Balance sheet data is less than 10% of what you find below. The rest of the data is an investigation of how well the company uses the resources at its disposal. The balance sheet is only the starting point for a bank. How it makes its money, the quality of the earnings stream it generates, the quality of its loan underwriting, and its capital allocation choices are all extremely important data that must be considered when making an investment in a bank or financial services company.
For anyone that wants to move forward more quickly with the analysis, we published an Industry Snapshot on mid-size banks last week. A couple banks in our focus group appeared in that analysis, if you're interested. Furthermore, the people at FoolMart said that it's alright for me to offer Drip Port readers a 20% discount on this issue of the Snapshot. If that interests you, click here for more details. Crassly commercial? You bet! (It's only about $5 for this 13-page in-depth issue, so we're keeping our guilt well under control.)
Wow, we're on number six today. This is one of the most unique regional commercial and retail banks around. BankBoston (NYSE: BKB) is the product of the 1996 merger of commercial and retail lender Bank of Boston with retail banking innovator BayBank. One of the interesting features of the company is its 80 years of experience in Latin America, where it's a highly recognizable commercial banking name. BankBoston now has a presence on five continents, offering excellent growth and diversity to go along with just regional banking exposure.
